A consumer depends on the trophic level below it for energy.
What does a consumer in a food chain depend of for energy?
The role that the consumer in a food chain plays is to take that energy away from that animal by eating it.
A consumer depends on the trophic level below it for energy.
The food chain.
The producer is the plant that creates energy using photosynthesis. The consumor is anything after that in the food chain.
A consumer that follows a producer in a food chain is known as a primary consumer or herbivore. These organisms feed directly on producers (plants) for energy and nutrients, forming the second trophic level in the food chain. Examples include rabbits, deer, and cows.
what is the sixth consumer in the food chain?
Unfortunately for later members in the food chain, only 10% of the energy of the organism that they ate is absorbed an usable by the consumer.
The organism that eats the producer in a food chain is known as a primary consumer or herbivore. These organisms feed directly on plants or algae for energy.
an consumer
A consumer is an organism in a food chain than obtains energy(chemical energy) from food such as another organism e.g a cow eats the grass. The cow is a primary consumer; a tiger eats the cow; the tiger is a secondary consumer So Anything in the food chain/web after the producer (plant) is a consumer
A consumer gets its energy in multiple ways.If the consumer is low on the food chain like a prairie dog it will get its energy from producers, such as grass that use photosynthesis.If the consumer is in the middle of the food chain like a hawk it would get its energy from eating the prairie dog and also gain the leftover energy from the grass the prairie dog ate.Last but not least is if the consumer is high up in the food chain like a coyote.The coyote will get its energy from eating the hawk which in turn will give it leftover energy from the prairie dog. It could also give some energy from the grass to the coyote but that's not very likely. So basically a consumer gets its energy by what it eats. I hope this helped:)
